Most of the respondents prefer large sessions in one room with social-distance seating versus large sessions being split into multiple smaller rooms; however, the results were close.
“Given the need for social distancing in the current environment, it makes sense that respondents would feel more at ease attending a conference where sessions, exhibits and events take place in larger rooms. Face masks and safety measures will be paramount at all live events for the near future. At The Lodging Conference this September, we plan to use larger rooms and the hotel’s large outdoor spaces to maximize social distancing and we will adhere to industry ‘Stay Safe’ guidelines.”
